    I like my Giz straight up, no filters, raw.

    And I am betting Auntie Ethel already knows about fleshlights.

    @Curves:

    Ah me too. There are a lot of hot sexual geeky women out there....I think....

    And a lot of hot Aunts, including me for close to 14 years.

    Well my lady, at least we could create a women who get off to TNG group....literally...

    There's plenty of scandalous posts in non-NSFW articles. Is there a way to tag our comments so they don't show up either?

    In reply to How To: Back Up Any Smartphone
    How timely this is for me, I just upgraded to an iPhone from a Blackberry Pearl 8100 and I am realized the SIM on the pear is virtually useless in terms of importing contacts to my new iPhone...
    Does anyone have a workaround to get the DEVICE memory from the Blackberry out?
    I have loads of phone numbers saved on the phone but not on the SIM, to get them on the SIM all I can find it that they have to be added manually in which case I might as well just manually add them to my iPhone...
    Yet another reason why I am SO happy to get rid of the Blackberry.

    I back up my contacts and calendar with Google Sync on my Blackberry. Words pretty darn well. I usually send my pictures to my picassa album after I send them so all my stuff is with Google. Just like my email, IM, RSS, search history, and pretty much the rest of my life. Skynet here we come!

    If you have a CDMA dumbphone, "BitPim is a program that allows you to view and manipulate data on many CDMA phones from LG, Samsung, Sanyo and other manufacturers. " It's open source, FREE, runs on Windows, Mac and Linux.

    I use MyPhone and it is probably the best part of my experience with WinMo. It just does its thing automatically every night, and I can access the service from any computer.

    For anyone in WinMo, I'll vouch for PIM Backup, especially if your device has microSD or the like. It really is fantastic, though ugly.

    @Fractal the Meek: +1... unless you happen to have a HD2. PIM Backup isn't compatible with the latest HTC Sense, which replaces the in-built MS messaging service with the HTC one (basically the Message Restore process hangs).

    @burnblue: Yeah, I tend to roll cloudless where I can though and always want an automatic local backup. PIM Backup fits those ticks nicely.

    Windows Mobile also has some other great restore programs - some even provided by the carrier.

    My FUZE came installed with Sprite Mobile Backup and from having it I highly recommend buying it if it didn't already come with your phone. It backs up every little nuance and can bundle it into an .EXE you throw on your microSD, and pop the card into your new WinMo phone. Run the EXE and your settings and other magical stuff restores back.

    Sadly from what I've heard, the Tilt2 does not come with Sprite.

    Mac users can use ISync to back up their Symbian based Nokia phones. Nokia also has Mac apps to transfer media & tether the phone as well.

    not to complain but i spy two typos and im not done yet. "In some ways, Windows 7 is actually better on Windows 7 than it is on OS X." "but it's you only choice."

    I have two questions. Will this work with the 16gb SSD? Also, can the memory be user upgraded to 2GB? Thanks to anyone that can answer these two questions. #dellmini10vhackintosh

    @fourex59: Just did it. Only tools necessary were a couple of small screwdrivers and some pliers, but you have to be comfortable completely disassembling a netbook. #dellmini10vhackintosh
